Airline pilots get paid by the  hour, from parking brake release to parking set.  Yes, they get per diem and a few other things too.


Last year I flew 130 hours and made about $150000 (I worked a lot of OT), so that works out to about $1150/hour.  No airline pilot makes that.  But mostly what I get paid for is waiting (watching netflix, playing video games, etc.), not flying.
